Re: [PATCH scsi-misc-2.6 05/08] scsi: remove a timer race from scsi_queue_insert() and cleanup timer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



05_scsi_timer_cleanup.patch

	scsi_queue_insert() has four callers.  Three callers call with
	timer disabled and one (the second invocation in
	scsi_dispatch_cmd()) calls with timer activated.
	scsi_queue_insert() used to always call scsi_delete_timer()
	and ignore the return value.  This results in race with timer
	expiration.  Remove scsi_delete_timer() call from
	scsi_queue_insert() and make the caller delete timer and check
	the return value.

	While at it, as, once a scsi timer is added, it should expire
	or be deleted before reused, make scsi_add_timer() strict
	about timer reuses.  Now timer expiration function clears
	->function and all timer deletion should go through
	scsi_delete_timer().  Also, remove bogus ->eh_action tests
	from scsi_eh_{done|times_out} functions.  The condition is
	always true and the test is somewhat misleading.
